Re: need speed

I know that after 4 different machines and 4 different installations, it is no longer something that is my fault. :-) :D Heh, I'd already come to that conclusion. Glad to hear that you're willing to help - there's no rush with this, so at your convenience. First, let's gather some information: 1) W...

Re: need speed

The older Audacity was 2.0.?: the last release available with Ubuntu 14.04. That would have been Audacity 2.0.5-1ubuntu3 (https://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/audacity). There should be no compatibility problems for projects created with that version being opened in the current 2.1.3 version of Audac...

Re: How do I remove the first and last 30 sec of many files?

You could do that with a SoX script: http://sox.sourceforge.net/ If the actual task is more specific (for example, how do I delete the first and last 30 seconds from 300 WAV files that are currently between 2 mins and 4 minutes duration), then there may be ways to do it in Audacity, but for a genera...

Re: First track ok, 2nd track is 1 octave lower on new Windo

Try setting the default sample rate in Audacity to 48000 Hz (in "Edit menu > Preferences > Quality")
Also set the device to 48000 Hz in the Windows Sound Control Panel.
Then close and restart Audacity, and make a test recording.

Re: FLAC (No-Clipping) > MP3 (Clipping)

MP3 is an inexact format. If the peak level before encoding is close to 0 dB, then the peak level after encoding may be a little over 0 dB. This is particularly the case if the audio has been heavily limited or compressed. The actual amount of clipping caused by this effect is usually just isolated ...

Re: default export to mp3 not aiff

The cause may not have been pinned down, though a solution has been developed, and a patch is available for those that build from source https://github.com/audacity/audacity/co ... bfbbdb2e99. With luck, it will be in the next release. A version of that fix has been committed to the Audacity source...

Re: Beat Finder Labeling Issue

The Beat Finder effect is a very simple algorithm, and not very accurate. I don't think there is anything "wrong" with the effect - it is just not sophisticated enough to give reliable results. Accurate beat detection is surprisingly difficult to achieve, which is why many of the better be...
